Title: Haiku Game!
Post by: techhead on November 15, 2007, 03:02:24 am: Yes, another silly post-count game.
Every post must contain exactly one haiku, and nothing more.
(This post is granted an exception by OP.)
If you need a reminder on what a Haiku is, its 5-7-5 sylables.
For more info, click here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku).

Lets get this started.
I post my Haiku right here.
Next one does the same.

To celebrate this,
Techhead proposed a haiku
contest. Who will win?

Here is my entry.
It is, I hope, the winner.

Post by: sSopris on November 16, 2007, 11:37:56 pm: Two fold I feel contempt
You guys make make no rhyme attempt
Or is that irrelevant?
Title: Re: Haiku Game!
Post by: player1 on November 16, 2007, 11:41:55 pm: Before you critique,
One would think that you might have,
Mastered the basics.

Count the syllables.
First five, then seven, then five.
Rhyming may come next.
Title: Re: Haiku Game!
Post by: Overdose on November 16, 2007, 11:55:40 pm: I still don't know how,
I think this is kind of weird,
Let's try something else.

Please accept my heart
-felt apologies. You, sir,
